I think the difference is that Man-Bat is more bat shaped, but Hartmann followed the silhouette of batman.
It’s interesting how the mask, ears, and cape are all incorporated into the silhouette.
@Harti, awesome interpretation, great artwork!

Gorgeous work, as usual.
At first I thought I was looking to a vampire, but the head silhouette actually reveals the truth.
By the way, nice way to explain why Mr. Wayne needs to wear a mask…

Thanks buddy!
Nice work… I really like this version of Batman – it’s more of a real batman. Makes me think of a story that would fit more into the lore of something like the chupacabra or mothman. That’d be a film I’d definitely check out.
Since you did the hybrid man/bat thing, I think it might be interesting to incorporate the wings more into the arms, to give it a more realistic hybrid nature. Just a thought.

Just in case someone wants to check out the whole project in detail. 
Sale ends on monday though.
I’m watching your work for some time now, and the quality and progress are simply undeniable. I’m not a very big fan of visual horror at this moment in my life, but I still kind of enjoy them.
I like that you are staying close to human form. With human-like monsters you start asking questions. Contrary to generic demon from generic Doom-clone (not that I have anything against that kind of entertainment!) that you just shoot in the face with a shotgun.
With your portfolio you probably don’t need any inspiration, but if you ever had - give Necroscope by Brian Lumley a read if you haven’t already. There is a plethora of interesting, obscure characters that might fit your style.
